Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)
In plain language
- Belgium is approving an agreement allowing holders of diplomatic or official service passports from the Benelux and Mongolia to travel without a visa for stays up to 90 days.
- The change applies solely to diplomats, official government staff, and their accompanying family members.
- For you as an ordinary citizen, nothing changes; standard passport and visa requirements for regular travel remain strictly in place.
